Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the host property, and whether the proposed development would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the Barnsbury Conservation Area

What decided it

The proposed mansard would disrupt the rhythm of the existing predominantly unaltered roofscape and harm the character and appearance of the conservation area, with insufficient public benefits to outweigh this less than substantial harm to the designated heritage asset.
